[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Thanks for explaining what the Ondemand governor is about.

1. No, I did not. I prefered keep the A2SD method, since it is lightweight and fast. It's pretty much an init.d script.

2. Yes, minfree, coded inside the kernel. I'm on windows now, so I can't post the exact values, but when I boot back to Linux I will tell you.

As for the title, I just take random quotes from movies... and I chose this one because, well... many users have complained that I keep updating this one and leave VanillaEclair behind :d
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] developing:
Both mirrors aren't working for me - the original one fails immediately, and FileFactory doesn't do anything after I answer the captcha and click the download button... any chance for a third one?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ProfessorAsian:
Does this version or can this version support voice to text. Tried Chocolate Eclair last week, was not included :( Dictating text works quite well.

Great rom otherwise, truly wonderful.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Screatch:
Nope, no voice to text here.

I agree, trully great ROM, very snappy.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
There is only one mirror available @developing. I think you've posted in the wrong thread.

@ProfessorAsian

No, voice input is not included.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dklicious:
hey Radug, i partioned my SD card and then from ext2->ext3 stll app2sd doesnt not work. I installed my apps and my internal memoery dropped from 142mb to 111mb....why is that. I did full wipe and everything before i installed the rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
I am really sorry for asking this nob question, can we enable Jit on this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Reboot... it moves the apks on boot, not as you install them.

You have to use a package from Cronos ROM I think... anyway, don't enable JIT, it's useless.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Thanks for this release! Going to flash it soon. Backing up data now :)

Just a question.

This rom is not deodexed. What are the pro and cons of this?

Just wondering :)

I figure, that if it's deodexed, it's easier to modify, isn't it?

Guess there are pros and cons for both. I just wonder what they are :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
PRO: speed improvements

CONs: /system partition full, but this doesn't affect users at all
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPadie:
Hi there RaduG.

I must say, this is one of the best ROMs you have developed so far. For me, I came from Cronos 2.0.2, and this is blazingly faster in comparison. I wanted to make a special request, if you don't mind, for myself and others who are interested in themeing. Would it be at all possible to provide a deodexed version?

I'm going to start working on some themes, and I would love to work on some for your ROM first. I can find work arounds to the odex system in order to theme, but it really makes the efforts twice as much. Never the less, keep up the great work - looking forward to enhanced and refined versions to come.

Mr P.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dklicious:
Hey Radug, i know your a busy man and i really do appreciate what you made. i followed your instruction, rebooted and apps2sd dont seem working, the internal memory still 106mb. and i made sure i did partioned the sd card and then ext2-ext3...hmm am i the only one with that problem? Cause when i flashed the ChocolateEclair 1.1r2 the apps2sd didnt work as well.. >.> only worked for me when I was fashing another 2.1 rom from a chinese forum, and after all the installations the internal memory still 145mb. advice plz >< need help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Is there work arounds for editing the codes in the XML files etc?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GZFan:
I had the 1.1 update. I wiped dalvik and flashed the zip. But I don't see the new wallpapers...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] f_padia:
@dklicious this is apparently due to dalvik-cache. If you remove mem card all your apps will disappear. I don't recommend this though because when I did it all my apps started FCing and I had to reinstall!

@radug another excellent ROM geezer. Good work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pschoch:
It works for me. After installing my apps and reboot, it shows 145MB free memory.

Radu's ROMs are the best.

Cheers

Pat
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Try to go to settings>applications>HTC Sense and then press "clear cache" and "clear data". This will reset Sense to default so you will lose any of your scenes and go to the default scene...

EDIT: I don't see them either after doing that^... But doesen't bather me. Also I don't think we can expect any support from RaduG since he wrote that we should perform a full wipe when we updated:P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
This is a great rom! It really is. It didn't solve my problem though.. After upgrading from 1.5 to 2.1, my phone reboots at random when I use my camera.

Guess my handset really doesn't like 2.1.. :( Any ideas anyone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ianm2k4:
Does this work with a branded Orange Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Yes, it works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] silverstream:
Strangely, for me, with freekernel, the superuser seems to load late on bootup. So, some apps that need root, eg setcpu and autokiller can't run automatically. Have to run agatn to trigger it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] astria:
yup, same problem here with me...

and i tried flashing HTC CIME into the ROM, it doesn't install at all...

btw, i did a full wipe before flashing...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lisiuc:
Same here. Is there a easy way to

flash the keyboard?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fysme:
Su doesn't seem to work for me at all with this version. Tried to push the su-version from VanillaEclair but same result. Will try to reflash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] silverstream:
I

Su works. Just very slow to load. Wait 5min after boot then try again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cenata:
Great ROM. I made full wipe just to be sure. Everything is working fine, great responsivness. This will be my final rom until your Vanilla one :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] miammiam:
OK for desire lock screen....finaly looks great...

But for next release if you change the boot sound by the defaut or delete...

So very good job :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
Sorry my Bad, my ISP is shrinking the speed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Moonshield:
Hey RaduG

Wonderful work mate!

Super fast rom, the A2SD works flawlessly by default, and I love the Desired lockscreen. Just one comment, the SU is still behaving weird- Either it wont grant SU permission, or it grant the SU permission but pops up an approuval over and over again (This happens for the titanium backup, so far). :confused:

Other then that it is realy great, fast and has very low battery use.

Great Job, love your roms :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Leimi:
Ok let's try this ROM a bit after some long months with the great VanillaEclair :)

Any ways to activate Live Wallpapers on this one ?

Thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom_taylor:
Great Rom once again, you guys rock!! :)

Can we have an option to disable 3G or just have 2G enabled!?

You can do this on Android 2.1 OS+, but i can't see the option within HTC Sense 2.1-update1 within your latest Rom!? :(

I don't require 3G all the time, and i'm quite happy using 2G when browsing so it doesn't waste too much battery power! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
You can, but the setting isn't so straight-forward. Go to settings / wireless and networks / mobile networks / network mode / GSM only -> this will make you use 2G only.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] flitz:
Same problem. But Titanium worx thats not the problem. The popups are just anoying.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
think u can disable the SU popups in the SU program in the Settings page.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 1immortal:
ok ... thats crazy weird :

flashed it , everthing worked without any problems , restored few apps with Titanium , restarted the phone , had some 140 mb of free space .

restarted the phone few more times , restored some 30 more apps with Titanium again , after the restore memory went down to some 75 mb , restarted the phone again for it to move the apks to the sd card and ..... nada , nothing .

the memory remains occupied , cleared the davlik , the cache , and its still remains on the 75 mb free .

what do i do wrong ?

please advice what to do , besides that , its fast , stable , i like it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lsxrx7:
this is almost as fast as the Mr.Bang 1.5

i like it

i think i will keep this
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] developing:
Heh, I was referring to your original download link and 42turkeys' bit.ly mirror in the post below. Anyways, got it to work in Firefox instead of Chromium so all is well on this end.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] qpop:
its a shame this ROM is odexed...apps like ASTRO, Peep, that I dont use, cant be removed...

ah well, smooth though!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
You can remove astro from Applications menu ;) And also peep, teeter & co via adb shell.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ianm2k4:
Is there a howto flash this for newbies that just have the branded orange phone. Nothing done to it yet. It would be my first.

Moving to ChocolateEcalir?

I have a noob question: What is the difference between Kimera 2.1 and ChocolateEclair? :confused:

I'm currently using Kimera 2.1, what to wipe if moving to ChocolateEclair?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mkrogh65:
Really nice ...

Hi -

Used this one for 4-5 hours now.

Really fast and nice working ROM.

App2SD works out of the box.

Got spooked by the loud boot sound though :)

Came from Villain 12, but this one is more smooth.

And by now I have installed appr. the same ammount of apps.

And still running very smooth :)

This is a keeper

BR.

MKrogh
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Difference I don't know but in theory you don't have to wipe anything else than dalvik-cache. Remember though if you're going to try: Nandroid and also that it is reccomended by RaduG that you wipe everything (even though I think you'll be fine not wiping).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cwm83:
Can anyone show me how to get HTC CIME working for this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] osmanamca:
Same here. I rebooted over and over but phone storage still 118 mb after installing apps. Pls advice help:( because its faster rom i ave ever see
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hikui:
hi.

I'm not a native English speaker. I don't understand the meaning of "deodexed". So I dont follow this post.

Could anyone tell me the meaning?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Moonshield:
Hello RaduG

Been using this rom for about 24 hours, and I love it!

Great battery time, very smooth and fast.

Wonderful job.

Just have a couple of questions- Any ETA on the ExtremeKernel? I like to set my Hero on 710Mhz.... ;)

Will you release any fix for the popup bug of the SU permissions, or is there any other way to fix it?

Thanx again for all the great work you are doing :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BRijpstra:
// removed my own post because it was

A. Just a bit blugh/un-nice

B. Maybe downright wrong in the answer I suggested

Still there were some good points in it about using search functions :D //
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BRijpstra:
@RaduG again :cool:

"Thanks for explaining what the Ondemand governor is about."

You're welcome, glad I could safe you the effort for once :D.

I eventually did a clean install, was very happy with the data roaming enabled by default :D. And I really like the wally with the "android in space" :).

So the A2SD method exist purely of that 2kb file? Lightweight indeed!

I used Darktremor Apps2SD version 2.7 before, and was liking the ability to change various options or move apps to internal memory via adb commands. I guess moving a single app isn't possible with this A2SD (or not without adding lines in the script)? If the 2.7 method needs to be running the entire time in order to work (hence also occupying memory), it's worth the sacrifice, lightweight and speed is everything :-)!

When you boot in Linux again sometime today, could you post the Minfree values that you used for the internal task killer?

(And random movie quotes, that explains why I was confused I guess :D.)

Good luck on VE!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hbls00190:
Hi Radu.

I noticed in CE 1 releases, the "badge" or "number" in the notification bar does not appear to be working. I'm not sure if it is broken in sense fullstop, or just something in way CE was produced? So, for example, if you have an app that shows number of unread emails in the notification bar and it may have a number hovering over the standard icon, that number is not showing. According to the android api, the number attribute (//developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.html#number) has been part of notifications since the beginning. But I've got several apps that are meant to show a number in the status bar, but currently just show their normal icon with no numbers. Are you aware of this..? These apps all seem to work fine in VE, which makes me think this is a sense bug?

(Admittedly haven't tried CE2 yet as my hero only works with lokernel.)

Irrespective of this, still loving your work.. ! Thanks for all your efforts in producing the best roms out there!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xmaskx:
Is there a fix for the broken eclair lockscreen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fallos:
brocken ??????
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
The lockscreen is not broken.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] astria:
that's the lockscreen from Desire...

anyway, RaduG, some minor problems that hope to be resolved:

1) SU dun seem to be the first to run, and i need to re-run setCPU everytime i turn on the phone

2) HTC CIME cannot be flashed to be installed... it worked on other Eclair ROMs

3) i am having problems with facebook widget... it does not appear in the list of widgets available... i ve re-installed it juz to confirm...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lisiuc:
I uninstalled the orginal CIME by Titanium Backup, then flash CIME. It works out good this way. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liljom:
hey RaduG,

when will you release the new kernels?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] huatin:
Tried yesterday to install the "Chocolate" image.

First installed the Radio and wiped everything. However after installing the Chocolate ROM and rebooting I only see the "HERO" screen, but nothing more happens. Waited for about 10 minutes, still the same screen...

After putting Kimera 2.1 it works again. :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Flash the freekernel :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] papadcha:
I installed before few minutes v2 or rom. I have the same problem as mentioned above. I get FC when it tries to synchronize google account. After a reboot and 3 more tries finally it synchronize contacts. As I check while it synchronize some emails it stops and it begining synchronization again after few seconds.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ianm2k4:
Just installed this. Very good version of 2.1.

In fact the only issue is that occasionally it comes up with ...bgp needs to force close?

Also how can I add live wallpapers? Doesn't seem to be present on my hero
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xmaskx:
Hm... try removing HTClockscreen.apk as you will get the eclair lockscreen which is broken, at least for me and I think for others too. Vr 12 got the same problem but had a fix, that is not working with your Rom...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Leimi:
Same here, the numbers on notification icons aren't showing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom_taylor:
I tried that, but 2G Internet with T-Mobile didnt seem to connect?

Works fine when set to GSM / WCDMA auto for 3G

Data roaming shouldn't be enabled unless you want to use data connection on another network abroad right!?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BRijpstra:
Whoops, made a stupid (and rude) mistake earlier on in the thread, my apologies :o...

It concerns the A2SD / Dalvik2cache configuration. (I clean installed btw, and A2SD works perfectly).

The changelog states: moved dalvik to /cache; so the dalvik-cache should only use space from the cache partition, which is barely used anyhow.

Unfortunately my folder /data/davik-cache is still filled with files, and the folder /cache/dalvik-cache doesn't exist.

--> dalvik2cache service isn't working :(. I was wondering, since there were a few others that were running lower than expected on internal space; is your dalvik-cache perhaps also 'stuck' in the data folder?

And more important; did anybody find a solution?

Edit: Found a clue. Re-edit: sheit, it was nothing....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djdavis:
this is a very nice rom, but I'm having a weird problem. if I set autokiller to optimum for example, it always reverts back to system. default after a reboot
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liljom:
hi RaduG,

I love this ROM.

You write in the first post, that you'll release more kernel. Could you make one with 730Mhz enabled?

Thank you!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m4r1u5z:
very good ROM :) But where's openvpn? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ng LC:
I think u should update the features list and also pls list out the bugs on this ROM,some people would like to know about it (like me)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
There isn't a bug list because there are no bugs...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] diewom:
Is the kernel from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6820822#post6820822 compatible with this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Do a backup before just to be sure. It should be, I don't know if the ramdisdks are identical or not.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] d-e-a-d:
Does this one already have a fixed Locale list?

Last one doesn't have some of the WWE locales. (Ex. Portuguese)

Big thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
Please let me know if this works, i'd love to try this too.

In case you're interested RaduG I have written up a review: http://rootmydroid.co.uk/roms/review-chocolateeclair-2-0-why-is-it-always-me-htc-hero/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom_taylor:
Scrub that, updated to your latest rom and it now seems to work fine with 2G :)

Keep up the good work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xmaskx:
When there are no bugs why does the eclair lockscreen not work as it should ;-)

The dragging areas aren't from left to right, they are upside down but with graphical glitch.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Sorry, but this is Sense, not Vanilla!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] diewom:
I don't think it works. I heard the boot sound, but now it's stuck at the white "HTC quietly brilliant" screen for more than 5 minutes.

Edit: Or it could be my hero not supporting 768...

Edit2: After removing the battery and rebooting again, it does start! But now I think it has frozen at the "enter pincode" screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
=> your phone does not support 768MHz.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dr.dre:
RaduG I think many of us are facing an issue with Superuser permission at the startup with the free kernal, it doesn't start automatically.

If you can just look into it :o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xmaskx:
Hm like your Rom but not the support. As it concerns me I think every part of a Rom should work, but do as you please. Thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
The rom does work. You're mistaken the lockscreen is correct. You are thinking of the Vanilla android lockscreen. There is nothing wrong with his support.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] d-e-a-d:
Can anyone check if there is Portuguese language on the locales? Or at least Portuguese on dictionary?

THanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] diewom:
With the freekernel I checked, My phone supports up to 730. OC Widget does recognize 768 as an available frequency, but then my phone gets instable...

Thanks for the support!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I wish I could make it available for everyone, but I can't give the CPU any more voltage.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BRijpstra:
Just to make sure that you will reach that perfection in chocolate eclair:

- My SU was indeed, sometimes, incredibly slow. I think it was only upon the first time of giving a program permission.

- And either my Busybox or the 20cachedavikcache must have been holding errors. I've added a log from the bootprocess just for your information, and no matter how clean I wiped during recovery, the dalvik-cache didn't end up in the cache directory.

It is btw not unlikely that this is caused by tiny download errors (connection was flaky), but there was no md5 'sum' to check. Can anybody calculate that for me perhaps? [My internet is currently via my phone only, not really the fastest experience for downloading larger files.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ng LC:
y I cannot install HTC_CIME (the chinese keyboard input) into this one?

can anyone teach me how to put it in ChocolateEclair 2.0? (Note: I did not use titanium backup to restore all my settings,I reinstall all my settings again,thats mean this ChocolateEclair 2.0 is all brand new!)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hbls00190:
Ah. That's good to know it's not just me. Radu - can you tell us if the numbers in the notification bar are simply incompatible with Sense..? It would seem a bit strange unless there is something they broke in their framework..?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I have not changed anything in the framework nor have made other changes that could have produce that. So I assume that it is a normal Sense behaviour.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] flitz:
Sometimes I'm having trouble with the camera. It just wont load. I loads and then revert back to homescreen.

After asking 2 times and no answer, I decide to install it just to test it.

There are still missing WWE Locales, a lot of them...

Is there a fix for it, does anyone know one?

And If I install MoreLocale from the Market, I can't use English language with Portuguese dictionary for example, I add a custom entry En-PT and doesn't work. So, there should be some kind of bugs with the Locales.
